I worked with Dustin on my case and I have no regrets! The entire process was pleasant. He was very professional and great with communication. He communicated everything that he intended to do with me, when it came down to the settlement he made sure to check with me and see if I was okay with the amount before accepting anything. He was open with me about the process and where we were at in the case. Anytime I had any questions I would email him and he always responded in a timely manner. I will say with this experience I felt as if he was really helping me and not looking out for his self or being greedy. I would definitely recommend and come back again. Thank you Dustin!

I had questions about a letter I received in the mail that I did not understand, he explained it to me without making me feel like an idiot. He was straightforward, and I respect that. Even though I didn't use his firm, I highly recommend him. He will be the first one I go to if needed. Thank you for taking the time to speak with me.

My first time dealing with a lawyer was with Adams Cross, LLC. David Adams explained the options for my case, giving me all the information to make my own decision. I did not feel any pressure. Once the case began, he guided me all the way through, and was always available for questions. If I need law services in the future, my first call will be to Adams Cross, LLC.

After becoming parents, my husband and I needed to set up a will and all the legal documentation to have in case of passing. David was very easy to work with, providing all the documents and explaining what each document was about. It was a seamless process. A little over 10 years later we revisited these legal documents with David, and it was good to update our wishes. One of those things that is good to have done. David is personable, knowledgeable, and thorough. Great attorney.

Matt Bretz and his team handled my personal injury case in spectacular fashion culminating in a fair and just settlement well before going to trial. Their successful track record of years of ethical practices and knowledgeable, effective representation served me well. The lawyer you choose does make a difference.
I suffered a debilitating injury in a fall due to unsafe conditions while dining in a Kansas tourist town. We tried to negotiate a fair settlement with the proprietor's insurance company ourselves but they offered us only a laughable, token amount to sign off on all claims since their “investigation” concluded that their client was not at fault.
My husband had purchased a couple books on the subject of seeking a premises liability settlement without hiring a lawyer, which greatly aided our case. Learning from the many actual case histories detailed Matt’s book, we were able to compose a compelling and eloquent Demand Letter. Still, the insurance company knew they had the upper hand especially since we were out-of-state and out-gunned. So they hoped that we would simply give up in frustration fighting an uphill battle.
One of the books that we purchased from Amazon titled “And Justice for All: Win Your Injury Case with Honesty and Integrity” was co-authored by Matthew Bretz and Melinda Young of Hutchinson, Kansas. Besides the book’s excellent content, the law firm of Bretz and Young was a perfect fit geographically since we now needed a lawyer that was licensed to practice in Kansas yet not in the immediate vicinity of the same town. The stars were aligned which led us to call Matt’s office and shortly afterward he pulled off the road to call us for details. He enthusiastically convinced us that he wanted to take this case (for public safety concerns as well) and was confident in a favorable outcome. He followed up by having photos taken of the deteriorating premise conditions the following weekend and he took charge from day one.
Matt is a very cordial and compassionate gentlemen but when it came to his negotiating skills in mediation, his tenacity and experience shone through. Mediation is an increasingly common (and often mandated) formal procedure before assigning a court date that often results in early settlement. We quickly learned to appreciate having Matt on our side. The opposing lawyer team tried a couple tricks but Matt saw right through them and put them on the defense. He then cleverly devised a simple yet effective formula of assigning a calculated value of pain and suffering that a jury could easily assign a tangible figure. Just the mention of presenting this to a jury in closing arguments instantly broke the stalemate in mediation negotiations, leading to a quick and rewarding resolution without the time-consuming expense and uncertainty of a jury trial.
Regardless of whether or not you might try going it alone, you would do well to purchase a couple books such as Matt’s to educate yourself for one of the most important financial events of your life. Before you say or do something that might jeopardize your case, take the time to research and learn how the legal system works. Most likely if your case rises to a high dollar figure, you will benefit greatly by choosing the right lawyer to achieve a fair and just settlement. We found our perfect match in Bretz and Young.

Jerry Wallentine was my attorney for a reckless driving I had this last year. My first email to his office, I got a response from Jerry himself and within minutes I was on the phone with him and he had a game plan. I did look around comparing attorneys since I wasn’t from that area and by far Jerry was my top pick. Jerry absolutely knew what he was doing and seemed to know people in the right places. We weren’t able to get diversion due to certain things on my end and when my court date came, Jerry was right there with me. The court room was completely full and I still can’t believe it but Jerry got me to be seen first. We got exactly what we wanted out of it and Jerry saved me from losing my license. I’ve never left a review for anything but felt like I needed to let others know about my experience and how Jerry helped me out. Thanks again Jerry

Mike has been an incredible asset and a wonderful source of calm for my family in what is the hardest time of our lives. He has helped us immensely through his tireless dedication and expert legal advice. He was able to, under a very constrained timeline, sort out all of the necessary paperwork to bring stability and clarity to my families estate, and he has done it all with a tremendous amount of respect and empathy for our unique situation and challenges. I cannot begin to recommend him enough to anyone who may be considering estate planning or who requires his expert assistance.

Having never encountered such injury before, Tom's representation was essential. He is very knowledgable and provided guidance throughout the months of recovery then settlement and continues to provide information to us when requested.
Our questions were always answered in details we could understand and he updated us with information he received from the carrier. We felt as if we were all a "team"...with Tom as the coach!
Tom's assistant, Lynn, was valuable, also. She did not provide legal counsel, but answered questions within her realm.
My injury could have been worse physically and would have been much worse without Tom's representation. I was unable to deal with financial issues for several months and my wife needed legal guidance from someone who knows the "in's and out's" of insurance and medicare issues. We asked Tom to take over; my wife and I appreciate his guidance very much.

I have worked with Carl throughout the years. Carl has always been a formable opponent, and there is nothing he wouldn't do for his clients.

Andrew was wonderful. He handled everything quickly and professionally. When the hospital billed me incorrectly, he straightened it out and I never had to deal with anything on my own. In the end, the settlement he got for me was more than double what I'd expected. I just can't thank him enough for all his hard work on my behalf.

I unfortunately, waited too long to finally take that first step to obtaining some legal assistance from a vehicle collision. If I had it (which I hope I do NOT) to do over again, I would have sought the legal advice immediately after I noticed pain as result of the accident. Although, I was reluctant to obtain a lawyer, I couldn't be more satisfied with the services and advise Mr. Geren provided. He is knowledgeable, willing to listen, and works diligently to understand his client's needs and demands. Most of us just want to be treated fairly when unfortunate situations arise that are beyond our control. Mr. Geren will thoroughly explain your options and do all he can to make you feel comfortable while doing so. He can turn a very difficult and sometimes unfair event into a more positive experience.
Mr. Geren is compassionate and does his best to show you that you are important, and regardless of what kind of pain and suffering you may be going through, he shows you that you don't have to be doing it alone, nor do you have to "accept" what has become- as a result determined by the insurance companies involved. I believe he deeply cares about each of his clients. He does what he can to make things right. Most importantly, he does this with integrity, compassion, and with care.
If ever you find yourself not feeling the same as before an accident, and you have exhausted the resources the insurance companies first give you, seek legal advise from Andrew Geren. I assure you, you won't be disappointed or regret that you had. He will guide you through the entire process, explaining thoroughly every detail along the way so that you understand completely. There will be no pressure, only guidance and suggestions and very good advise.

Richard and the rest of the staff at Devaughn-James are great people to work with. They gave me accurate expectations for the outcome of my case, explained the entire process in a way that was easy to understand, and gave good answers with quick responses to all of my questions.
What I most appreciated is that his staff was very flexible to work with and easy to contact, both by phone & by email. They kept me well informed throughout the entire process, checked in with me periodically to ask how I was recovering from my injuries, and were patient with me in allowing me to balance my own personal & work life with getting them the paperwork from my doctors & everything else they needed from me to process my case.
I would highly recommend this lawyer, and if I am ever in the position to need his services I would definitely work with him again.

It’s 2020. We were in a pandemic AND we had a stalker problem. On the advice of responding law enforcement officers to yet another harassment report, we submitted petitions for Protection from Stalking to the court. We clearly didn’t know what we were doing because we were unsuccessful in obtaining temporary orders. We were feeling vulnerable and afraid in our own home and we needed legal advice. David J Brown came highly recommended by multiple people familiar with our situation with this caveat: “He isn’t cheap but he is worth every dime.”
My husband and I wanted to know the following: Did we have a legitimate case? How could we most effectively represent ourselves at the hearing? Would our evidence stand up in court?
David listened carefully to our concerns, reviewed our material evidence, and assured us that we should indeed seek Protection Orders. He helped us feel prepared to represent ourselves in court. He advised us to seek a continuance should the stalker appear with an attorney so that we had time to retain counsel.
We retained David J. Brown to represent us. It took an entire year before our case was fully tried. David helped us obtain temporary orders midway through the year. The stalker continued to harass us and the residents of our small rural community. Because we had temporary orders, the stalker was charged with contempt and criminal violations of the protection orders. His criminal trial is still pending. Once our case was finally fully tried in court, we were able to obtain Final Orders of Protection from Stalking and begin our healing process.
Ours was a highly unusual and difficult case rife with challenges the likes of which none had ever seen before. Not only did David J Brown set legal precedence during the course of our highly stressful and unusual year, he did it during a pandemic! Talk about unforeseen difficulties requiring creative solutions on the fly! Zoom court anyone?
We got to know David over the course of our very difficult year. He was highly responsive to our needs and the demands of our case. He demonstrated an honest respect for the legal ethics that guide his practice and he cares deeply for the people he represents. He is an excellent attorney and a genuinely nice human being. We are incredibly grateful to David for helping us navigate through uncharted legal waters during uncertain times.
Thank-you David J Brown! You should know that you and your staff are highly respected professionals! Even the Sheriff's officers that we have encountered over this last year said we were lucky to have you as an attorney. When the law enforcement types sing the praises of your long-haired "hippie" lawyer, you know you've got a good one!

My family is a client of Bryan's. We were referred to Bryan by a friend and we are so glad that we were able to work with him. Bryan treats like a friend, not just a client. He has compassion and works with us to make sure we have everything taken care of. He well researched background information for the case and has explained things along every step of the way. He is detailed oriented, meticulous, methodical, comprehensive and thinks of things that we never would have thought of.

I needed an attorney in 2011 for a case where I was run over by an ex boyfriend. I highly recommend Mr. Neustrom. My family contacted Mr. Neustrom while I was in the hospital (Wichita, Ks) a hour and fifteen minutes away from home and he drove to the hospital the next day to speak with me. He went above and beyond. Mr. Neustrom and the rest of the team eased my mind about the whole process. Definitely great customer service and professionalism. All my calls were answered and or returned. Honest and trustworthy. He mailed me a check after the case was settled due to the companies lack of communication for payment. Mr. Neustrom is the one I will call on. Thank you so much for everything!

When I was injured in an on-the-job accident in 1999, Pat was the attorney I chose to represent me because he was a neighbor and a personal friend, who I had known for nearly ten years. Pat helped me secure an award for the state maximum amount, as well as an agreement that obligated the work comp insurer for future, accident-related, medical expenses. I settled into an amicable relationship with the insurer that lasted for nearly 10 years, but suddenly, for reasons that I've never been able to discern, I began having trouble securing insurance approval for prescribed medicines. Additionally, the insurer demanded I consult a physician located 3 hours away because they were "concerned about the quality of care" my pain management physician was providing. I suspected their concern was more likely centered on prescription cost, rather than quality of care, but I knew I needed legal help to resolve the issue. Even though it had been nearly a decade since Pat had worked on my case, he and his staff gathered the information they needed to adequately, successfully, confront the insurance company and convince them that they would not fare well if this matter would appear before a judge. It's probably no surprise that the insurance company tried several times to make it more difficult for me to maintain the level of pain control I enjoyed prior to their "concern" for my welfare, but Pat successfully met and overcame every challenge. He also submitted the bill for his services to the insurance company, who having been unable to produce a single, successful, legal outcome, signaled total defeat by paying for my defense! I don't know how Pat's performance could possibly be improved.
Pat provides advice that is reasoned and reliable. His strategies are informed by nearly 40 years of experience, which renders them particularly effective. He is practical, but he never made me feel that I was just a "client" or that my issues were just components of a "case". Pat never lost sight of me as a person, and he understood that the result of the insurance company's failure to live up to their responsibilities, was an increase in my physical pain. Pat and his excellent staff worked with an urgency that made me feel as though they were experiencing that same pain. Who could ask anything more?
I give Patrik Neustrom my highest recommendation.

When I first met Mr. Larry Wall, I got impressed by his kindness. He was very caring about my being ready for the depositions. One time he cancelled the deposition because my daughter was not feeling strong. He made sure that I became more comfortable and ready for the deposisitons. He surely supported me all the way. He was smart but yet caring and he was always upbeat.

I was recommended to Darin by a friend of mine and it was a great decision. I was T-boned while driving through an intersection on my motorcycle. Darin fought hard to get all of the medical bills taken care of as well as getting a fair value for my damaged property. This started as a no fault case but he worked diligently to prove culpability. I appreciate him taking the time to explain every part of the process along the way. I would recommend Darin to anyone in need of an attorney.

From the beginning of our experience with Hutton and Hutton Law Firm, we just kind of knew these were our guys. We had a very difficult case involving a minor and they went above and beyond any and all of my expectations.

I could not be happier with Darin Hayes and the service that was provided for us. They helped us get everything we needed and more for my son.

Mr. Hicks worked with me on a case that involved a past client that was not happy with the services my company provided. The case went from negotiations all the way to a trial. Mr. Hicks was very knowledgeable of the laws. After telling Mr. Hicks about my services and giving him some basic information about my work, he took it upon himself to learn even more about my business. Armed with his knowledge of the law and the ins and outs of my industry he took my case to trial. The process was very stressful, but Mr. Hicks had amazing confidence and poise. Mr. Hicks got the verdict we wanted and I'm very happy with his quality of work. I would highly recommend him to a family or friend. 100% No Question. Thanks again for your hard work Mr. Hicks...

I first discovered Tamar when I was a passenger in a car that was involved in an accident. She was very thorough, kind, understanding and effective. That was about 16 years ago I think. Since then she has represented a friend in a workers compensation case and two other friends in car accidents and everyone has been very satisfied with her work. She is not only a great lawyer but she is honest and responds to her clients. Having been in business for myself for many years and used many different types of attorneys, Tamara is the most effective I have ever been associated with and would highly recommend her. No issues with her whatsoever. Great person also.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You
A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.
If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.
When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?
Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:
- Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
- Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
- Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
- Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
- Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
- Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.
What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?
A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:
- Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
- Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
- Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
- Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
- Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
- Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.
How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?
Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
- Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.
Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer
Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with car accident cases?
Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
What kind of compensation can I expect?
Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
- Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
- Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
- Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
- Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
- List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
